tasty new amiga groovebox just dropped

@sean_ae @oscillik @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee "But this stuff is just really icky - millennials will get teary eyed over it and I’m like
" this made me lol out loud (thread has been doing that a lot, glad I'm not snickering at a screen while bad GM sounds pipe out with any onlookers.)Not sure it's just nostalgia though; something so disturbingly "nothing" and pure ugly about those sounds that is really alluring now. But as a kid I hated them and hooked up the MIDI to an external module.

no tears! I think it is beyond nostalgia but I won’t advertise and link my thesis lol but I think the idea is the value of these goes beyond that nostalgia link. @sean_ae @oscillik @Rushup_Dee -
@elifyalvac @oscillik @Cognessence it looks like a ton of fun yeah, almost can’t believe it exists, least expected elektron offshoot so far

@Cognessence @oscillik @sean_ae @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee i’ll never forget my summer with dr. sbaitzo.
@emenel @oscillik @sean_ae @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee Oh man, I feel I missed out. I never knew then those nights could have ambled away with the robot Soundblaster therapist...Truly deprived.

@Cognessence @emenel @sean_ae @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee I can just fire up my Amiga 1200 and load up the original Say program

Robert - even keen dreams? the kind of creepy weird one.I still have my dosbox setup! keen4, keen6 where the babysitter was almost being eaten, and the very first one with green monsters. and i love the sound of the ice thing
Oh no I have to stop right there now. Sean - never tried that groovebox for gameboy. that pink parrot thing looks and sounds cool. haha i like their subscription note
@elifyalvac @sean_ae @oscillik You're making me want to re-download my GOG Keen collection! The dreams will surely improve.

@Cognessence @oscillik @sean_ae @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee i learned a lot ... about pronoun inversion and grammar substitution lol

@emenel @oscillik @sean_ae @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee Ha!
Speaking of educational software - did any of you play these? Amazing. Not much pronoun inversion and grammar substitution learned, but some physics. Maybe.

@Cognessence @oscillik @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee lol
I just don’t get it
There’s a few GM sounds I like, like the PMA-5 was GM but had a lot of Roland character, R8 sounds and whatnot
But this stuff is just really icky - millennials will get teary eyed over it and I’m like
@sean_ae @Cognessence @oscillik @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee I really like Vektroid's (of OG vaporwave fame) “Seed & Synthetic Earth” album, e.g.: https://vektroid.bandcamp.com/track/moebius-blue
It's not *quite* GM sounds — it sounds very evocative of them, while being a bit cleaner and more interesting than pure GM sounds.
As far as age, I am squarely millennial (33 y/o).

@changterhune @elifyalvac @Cognessence @Rushup_Dee Claude young did gigs with a qy20, just holding it in his hands, no table
@sean_ae @elifyalvac @Cognessence @Rushup_Dee oh my god that’s no mean feat! I had a qy10 & it was a certified piece of shit

@Cognessence @emenel @sean_ae @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee I did not. At this period in time I was hacking the school computers to put DOOM and Rise Of The Triad on them

@sean_ae @elifyalvac @oscillik @Cognessence Besides the authentic, 8-bit sample-playback is a very sophisticated sequencer. Some of the features I wish would be ported to current elektron boxes! Step-jump, step-push, direction, and some hidden stuff, too.

@Cognessence @elifyalvac @oscillik @Rushup_Dee imagine if I saw the light suddenly and started making GM sounding music with them bad snares and really loud flat strings but in Max
All modelled really anally

@oscillik @emenel @sean_ae @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee Yours was clearly a more noble and brave path!

@sean_ae @elifyalvac @oscillik @Rushup_Dee Now I won't be able to sleep, imagining this.
I can admit the snares are *so* bad that I'm not sure even you could model them.

@reillypascal @Cognessence @oscillik @elifyalvac @Rushup_Dee I’ve actually got this and really like vektroid
It’s more than just *that sound* though iykwim, kinda a bit like that thing but really bent up

@glitched01 @elifyalvac @oscillik @Cognessence yeah I can see from the vids
It’s def got that old elektron bravery about it
